  • Reuse containers, bottles, and jars - any bottle can be a water bottle!
  • DIY a keep cup from a jar and rubber bands for hot and cold takeaway drinks - you don't need to spend lots of money to be green.
  • Reusable bags are only a great alternative to plastic if you keep reusing them. Find ways to remember them to keep your footprint low.
  • Fill a mug with 1 cup of white or citrus vinegar, see instructions below, sit it in the top rack of your empty dishwasher and run through the hottest rinse cycle to clean and freshen your dishwasher.
